The coroner has decided that Frank Mer-

to his death not by murder but by accidental
drowning From the actions of tie man
previous to his death, there is no doubt but
going to prove that fact. One Of his queer
acts was to climb up on the top of the bridge
at Bancroft and give orders to visionary sail
0rs, imagining that he was commander of
vessel. He was induced to come down from
bis perilous position by a stratagem. Sun
day night he was taken to blacksmith shop,
provided with bed and something TO eat
and locked up. He did not sleep any during
the night but kept up a series of outcries all
night long, and when let out in the early
morning started off at quick run and was
not seen after. that; Coroner Whitney

smashup some of the animal cages on
the flat cars were broken and a Bengal

Vulture escaped. The widest kind
Of a commotiOn followed. Depot Of
licials and policemen ran franticaIly
about shouting warning and there was
a general and quick stampede from the
yards to the streets beyond. The circus
and depot men then made a search for
the animals. The leopard was found
crOuched under freight car and an at

failed and the animal rushed from cnv.

Baking Powder Tramps.

The danger to the public health from
the indiscriminate use of the many
lime and alum baking powders of com
merce has been SO fully exposed that
eVtTybOdy desires to avoid them. Az
"fOreWarned is fOreaTmed," hOusekeep-
ers will thank us for aprising them OF
the special efforts at present being
made to dispose OF such powders in
this vicinity.
The prOprietOrs of some of the worst
of these powders are now going from
house to house, trying by means of
trick, or sO-called test, with heat and
water, to show that their article is "a
good as the Royal Baking Powder,
making the comparison with this
brand because everybody recognizes 1t
to be absolutely pure and wholesome,
the object, of course, being to supply
their own goods in place of the Royal,
which hOusekeepers have for so many
years relied upon to puff up the morn
ing biscuit, ana to make the light, pals
table, and wholesome roll, cake, and
pastry for which it is famous.
The hOuSekeeper will do well to beOn
her guard against ehese baking powder
tramps. Every intelligent person knows
that any goods peddled from house Ia
house in this manner, or that are given
away in samples, or sought to be intro
| duced by secretly traducing the charaO-
ter of other goods well known to be
pure and reliable, have no merits Of
their own, and have failed to find pur
chasers through legitimate means.
We are informed, as matter of fact,
4 that one of these tTamps is trying TO in
4 trOduce powder that has been found
/ by the Government chemist to be 11.85
per cent lime, while the other peddles
a powder that is 20 per cent. alum-One
a powerful caustic, the other cOrro-
l sive poison.
No such tricks or jugglery will be apt
to deceive any intelligent person. The
| housekeeper who has used her Royal
| Baking Powder ever since she discard
ed cream of tartar and soda knows
more about its qualities than all the
tramps in the country cen teach her
The crucial test TO which she has put
the Royal Baking Powder--the test of
actual and successful work in the prep
aratiOn of pure and wholesome
food, under which it has never
failed-is entirely satisfactory to her.
She has always had good luck with it
| in making light, sweet and delicious
bread, biscuit and cake, and has placed
it, to stay, at the head of her house
| keeping faYOrites. She knows that it
has been officially approved by the
Government chemists as the best, and
we imagine that the baking powder
tramp who attempts to supplant its
| place III her confidence will find this a
| had wear for his hueinpSS
